The Week In Review

March 26, 2010 - by Eric Naing

With the House’s passage of the reconciliation fix (H.R.4872) to the health care bill (H.R.3590), the complete Democratic health care reform plan has finally made its way through Congress. The year-long debate has been wild but this week’s climax may have been the most thrilling. Relive all the excitement by checking what we’ve been up to this week at OpenCongress:

The public option is still dead, but that doesn’t mean it won’t come back in the future.

And to top things off, here’s what the Democrats accomplished last night by passing the reconciliation bill.
